US Midterms 2018: Post Mortem
The election craze is finally over. Who won?
And what a mad Midterms have they been this time! Just look at this…

So, over $5 billion was thrown at this “referendum on the new Hitler who happens to be a Russian spy”. But, instead of getting a clear winner, we got a bunch of winners… Well, both major parties proclaimed victory.
Democratic party — Winner!
They regained Congress after eight long years! It’s not a big majority, but now they block legislation, and they can play “investigation” games to their hearts content. Nancy is in the saddle again, and she promises return of “checks and balances”. Great, isn’t it?
Republican party — Winner!
Republicans expanded their majority in the Senate, or as POTUS would say, they… “defied history”. And they can rain on the Democratic parade blocking “impeachment” attempts, and wherever Senate has a decisive role. Fantastic!
Just listen to them:

And they are not the only winners. Remember how Democrats were desperate to explain “Russian meddling” tactics as a “sowing dicord and division between Americans”?
Russians — Winner!
Now that US political arena is divided, and we have infamous “Washington Gridlock” on the horizont, Russia must be proclaimed a winner. They manage to sow the discord with a fantastic 0.0017% of interaction at social media! “How did they do it”, you ask? Well, they have used their Intelligence — something that is sorely lacking in CIA, FBI, NSA, etc… Putin must be celebrating with votka and caviar.
Wallstreet — The Big Winner!
The greatest winner is US corporatocracy. They managed to sell another scam to the American people — fight between the true right and false left. They staged a theatre without true left, and the situation was best summarized by our @leecamp in his latest “Redacted Tonight” show:
You must ask yourselves at the end: “Hey, where is true left?” and “Did anybody lost this elections?” But of course…
You Lost, Big Time!
US people again had to swallow a choice between two evils. Having to make your choice between two corporate political mechanisms is a certain sign that plundering of the people and severe divisions will become ever deeper. You can read or see excellent five minute explanation by our unconscious socialist, @dollarvigilante.
And at the end, the answer to the most interesting question: “Hey, where is true left?” You can easily guess you’ll never see it over the corporate media. Where will you see it? At the lawn of Capitol Hill and White House. You will easily recognize true left. They will all have torches and pitchforks… celebrating regained democracy.
